Campus too tired, too broke for holiday Adam Shockley The Metropolitan

Students on the Auraria Cam­pus will have to go somewhere else to celebrate Cinco de Mayo this year.

Hispanic student organizations from Metropolitan State College of Denver, the University of Colo­rado at Denver and Community College of Denver cited a lack of money and a lack of motivation as the reasons they will not present any campus events recalling one of the most widely observed His­panic festivals.

"Wereallydidn'tcommittothe celebration this year," Armand Abeyta, president of the Hispanic Leadership Association said. Abeyta said that he wanted the HLA to sponsor a Cinco De Mayo

celebration, but a dispute with MSCD Student Government had to be resolved first. The dispute, involving cost receipts from a Christmas party, had to be cleared up before the HLA could receive funding for any new event.

Representatives of the MSCD chapter ofMov imiento Estudiantil Cl!icano de Aztlan cited a different reaSoll__ for deciding not to host a Cinco De Mayo event.

"We put so much energy to­wards the conference," Richard Delgado, a member of MEChA who's running for vice president of the campus group, said. Delgado said group members exhausted re­sources of time and energy on or­ganizing the MEChA national conference recently held in Den­ver. Delgado said that many group members are busy catching up on homework which had been put off

during conference preparations. Neither time nor energy was a

problem for the Latin Student Or­ganization ofCU-D. Laura Rubil, group treasurer, said their request for funding from CU-D Student Government was rejected. Ac­cording tq Rubil, CU-D Student Government representatives said that the request was submitted too late to be considered for funding. ~Another reason the request was denied, Rubil said, was because of a lack of funds.

"They said the request had come in too late for them to consider it and plus there was no money," she said.

Persistence pays off for education center Gail Spencer The Metropolitan

The president of the North Lin­coln Housing Projects resident's council understands persistence.

Three years ago, Richard Macias, a former Denver restauranteur, w~t a third grade reading level and couldn't under­stand bis business contracts.

Today, at age 50, he's prepar­ing for his General Equivalency Diploma, planning to attend Met­ropolitan State College of Denver and working with MSCD to build an educational resource center for the College's neighboring North Lincoln Projects just south of Colfax A venue.

"I wantto do that again," Macias said of pursuing another restaurant venture, "and when I do, I want to know all about contracts."

Macias is working with Anto­nio Esquibel, MSCD professor and

vice president of community out­reach, who is coordinating the education center on behalf of the college.

According to Esquibel, a long­time advocate of minority educa­tion, 80 percent of the housing project's residents are Hispanic.

"Build it and they will come -just like the movie," Esquibel said referring to the movie, "Field of Dreams," in which a man's vision is pursued to its success.

Macias said he agrees. "If there is one thing I learned

from listening to Dr. Esquibel, it's that you've got to be persistent," Macias said. "You've got to pur­sue what you believe in. And I truly believe in this project."

Macias and Esquibel are mem­bers of the center's advisory board and planning committee that have held meetings since February on the joint effort of the residents' council, MSCD and the Denver Housing Authority.

The educational resource cen­ter is expected to serve as a link between MSCD and the housing development's 2,500 residents-1,500 of whom are children -who live in North Lincoln's 422 units.

Plans for the $85,000 center include a library, a computer lab, a tutoring area, a writing and read­ing lab, and a classsroom area for lectures, seminars and workshops. The center will be located in the housing development in an area of up to 4,000 square feet.

The Denver Housing Author­ity, now considering the proposal, is being asked to provide remodel­ing and furniture for the new cen­ter.

MSCD will provide tutors, pro­fessors and staff to conduct classes, students to staff the center, advis­ers on resources, college services and career planning, and access to campus facilities and events.

Other board members for the

center include Augie Martinez, director of the North Lincoln Ser­vice Center; Ed Gibson, manager of North Lincoln Projects for the Denver Housing Authority; Judy Pontius, principal of Dora Moore Elementary School which has stu­dents who live in the development; and Darlene Lo~z, president of Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan.

According to the concept paper for the center, estimates of dropout rates for students living in housing developments range up to 92 percent. The paper cites reasons for this alarming rate to include students' lack of information and materials, the lack of resource and opportunity advisement, and the lack of successful minority role models.

If his persistence pays off, both the community and the campus will benefit from the actions of the soft-spoken Macias. 0

MSCD reps walk out of conference in protest Shawn Christopher Cox The Metropolitan

Seven student advocates repre­senting Metropolitan State College of Denver walked out of the Re­gional Conference and Congres­sional Hearing April 27.

The conference sponsored by the Rocky Mountain Student As­sociation (RSMA) was held in Tempe, Arizona.

The walk out by MSCD was prompted because the conference did not address minority issues, which was stated as the number one priority for MSCD by the student participants.

Dan Holden, student body president, urged the walk out, "to make a political statement," be­cause of the, "lack of concern on part of the institutions present to recognize (the) needs and issues that affect minority students, namely the low retention, recruit-

ment, and graduation rates," Holden said.

Anthony V ander Horst, vice president-elect of the student body, said "At first I wasn't sure what the intentions were, but then (I realized that) Alvertis (Simmons) and Dan (Holden) were doing something that was necessary."

Byron Hodack, representing the Student Organization for Alumni Relations, said that the decision to walk out was a good move.

"All of Metro stuck together and decided as a group," Hodack said.

Mike Beasley, president of the student body at the University of Colorado at Denver, said, "We share Metro's concern about the obvious neglect over the discus­sion of minority issues. We feel there's much more room (for) im­provement."

The walk out actually took place during the Colorado Caucus. Present at the caucus were the University of Colorado at Denver,

Lopez said a shuttle to take visitors from parking lots to the festival will operate throughout the day.

According to the American Book of Days, Cinco de Mayo recalls the battle of Guadaloupe in which 2,000 Mexican soldiers repulsed the French army of

6,000. The battle was one of sev­eral in the French effort to con­quer Mexico and make Maximillian king of the country. While the battle is described as a minorone in the war with France, the Mexican people celebrate it as an event where they success­fully resisted foreign domina­tion if only for a brief time.

General Ignacio Zaragozo led the Mexican victory at Guadaloupe. 0

University of Colorado at Boul­der, and the University of Denver.

Before MSCD walked out of the caucus, elections were held for the RMSA Board of Directors.

Four people ran for the three positions from Colorado, including Rebecca Wells from MSCD.

After it was announced that Wells did not win, Alvertis Simmons told the caucus it missed the only chance to elect a minority and stormed out of the room in anger and disgust.

Two of the elected students are from DU and the third is from CU­D.

"I certainly don' t think that DU represents the views of Colorado and the region," Holden said.

Regarding the two DU students that were elected, Vander Horst said, "It's a shame. Private schools don't have the same need that ur­ban schools have."

Simmons' feelings were shared by the rest of the MSCD delega­tion when a majority of them voted

the monetary aspects of it," Garbar-Damour said.

She said, 'This case has not been resolved to my satisfaction."

Garbar-Damour told The Metropolitan that Wojahn said she sexually harassed her and used explicitly language describing her

sex life.

to walk out. Richard Jackson, faculty adviser

for the conference, said that he was very proud of the MSCD students because they, "led.the conference in the proper directions.

"You students made them aware," Jackson said, concerning minority issues.

Vander Horst said there is, "Already talk of a national student league to advocate post-secondary education," concerning urban schools.

"I would really like to see this school be the leaders on contem­porary issues," Vander Horst said.

"Now were going to form a national urban student league," Holden said.

"We're looking at putting on the conference in February if we can get all the details together," he said.

"Metro would be the sponsor of it. We 're going to be putting this together with UCD," Holden said. 0

Garbar-Damour said that would be hard to do because, "I'm married to a man," she said and continued, "I don't have a gay sex life."

Francisco Rios, chair of the modern languages department, said, "I'm not going to comment on that," when asked about this

case. 0

Wiman seeks student involvement Deb Brown The Metropolitan

The incoming student body president is dedicated to reaching the students and implementing special projects of the "non­traditional student government."

William Charles "Chip" Wiman, 35, will take office May 11 as student body president of Metropolitan State College of Denver.

Wiman said that his presidential phi­losophy is one of a teaching platform and not a politician 's platform. He is here to be a teacher for the students at this college to make their lives easier, he said.

He said that he is taking the government right to the students, as he had promised during his election campaign.

His first step is publishing a survey in this issue of The Metropolitan, he said.

"We're polling the students and asking them what they want us to spend their money in student government on," he said, "taking it right to them as I promised." He _added that the government has included in their proposed budget, weekly advertising in The Metropolitan as an attempt to reach the students.

'My emphasis is the same that I've had from the very beginning, and it's that I don't want to spend my time doing politics. I want to spend my time in the classrooms. I've proposed ... that I would like to be addressing classes one hour of my day everyday.' ·

Wiman said that he doesn't want to make any major changes in the student govern­ment.

"My emphasis is the same that I've had from the very beginning, and it' s that I don't want to spend my time doing politics," he said. "I want to spend my time in the class­rooms. I've proposed . .. that I would like to be addressing classes one hour of my day everyday."

Wiman said he hopes to visit two classes a day, which is potential! y 300-400 students a week.

"I want to deal with helping the students understand about scholarship programs, filling out Pell grant information, and fi­nancial aid," be said. "I want to teach them about free tickets that go untapped here.

"I want to teach them about graphic slabs and the library-about a million things that they don't know as freshmen and don't find out until they're juniors or seniors."

Wiman said that, in addition to the one hour a day visiting classrooms, he will have one hour a day open time for students and two hours a day for administrative duties, where he will work with other student government personnel. During that time he said that he will enact the special projects he has planned on the agenda.

Wiman said that his special projects are as follows:

•Leadership Seminar-Include sessions on communication skills and goal setting.

•Social Events - Open forums, recep-tions, and luncheons

•Film Series •Recycling Program •Day Care Project- Includes an emer-

Chip Wiman, student body president-elect

gency day care loan program •Library Project - Includes a book and

journal program and drive •Parking Alternatives Project-Includes

a bus ridership program and parking alter­native grants

•Student Awareness Conferences - In­cludes a major conference on rape awareness and smaller educational conferences and seminars.

Wiman said that he has proposed a bud­get of $82,216, adding that he feels that it ' s a realistic figure. He said that it's a contro­versial topic since the governments in the past have proposed budgets that were twice as much as needed.

Wiman said that he is looking forward to spending the money in the budget on ap­propriate and productive projects such as implementing a recycling program. He said that he wonders why MSCD doesn't have a recycling program, adding that it is the largest state-run college in the nation that offers a 4-year bachelor's degree program.

He said that he hopes to accomplish all of the programs in the budgetbut "Ifl could do five or six major projects that are long term, that in itself is adequate compared to past performance in student governments, and I'm not picking on anyone in particular."

'Students need to know that the people that are in office are working for them. They are their employees.'

Wiman said that a current item on the agenda is the stude£1t government retreat to be tentatively held June 21, 22 and 23. He said that it is something that is always in­cluded in the budget, involving the past government and the incoming government. It will address multicultural and homophobia issues, leadership and communication skills, parliamentary procedures, and legislative bill writing skills.

He is designing an incentive program for the retention of students senators, which will include a meal card, he said, adding that there has been a problem with the turnover of senators.

"They had 75 senators total last year," he said. "It starts with 25 so it turned over three

MSCD meterology students follow in twister's path While many ,people were talcing cover

from any one of the 48 tornados that thrashed through Kansas last weekend, two Metro­politan State College of Denver students were chasing after them.

David Solomon and David Thede used the MSCD meteorology systems to pinpoint a 100 to 200 mile area near Wichita, Kans., and set out on the seven-Jiour drive.

"We have a saying that a trailer is a tornado magnet, so we thought about tow­ing one with us for good luck," Solomon said.

Following information picked up visually and from local weather reports, the pair caught sight of a twister just outside Wichita and continued to follow it up the Kansas Turnpike for about 40 miles, northeast to­ward the Emporia, Solomon said.

The two junior meteorology majors got as close as a half mile away, Solomon shooting still footage and Thede taking video tape of the storm.

This was the first major outbreak of tor­nados since 1979, Thede said, with 71 twisters being recorded for the day.

This was Solomon's first timeout, while Thede was hunting for about the 12th time, he said.

The two say they will head out whenever they have the time this spring, and whenever there is a storm close enough to them.

Above and above right: one of the many tornados that ravaged Kansas captured on film. Bottom right: a mangled car marks the path of the damaging storm.

Spokeswoman denounces constitutional 'right to die' Todd Burgess The Metropolitan

If dying becomes a Constitutional right, there will be no way a person can legally prevent others from killing themselves, a Right to Life spokeswoman said at the Auraria Student Union April 24.

Diane Hochevar, who is Colorado director to National Right to Life, explained that, because the violation of one's Constitu­tional rights is illegal, no means would be left for a person to stop another from jumping off a bridge or taking a drug overdose if a right to die is approved.

"Right to die sounds OK," Hochevar said. "But when you go into it and see it will lead to this and this and this ... everybody doesn' t get all the care they need."

Hochevar, who is also on the International Anti-Euthanasia Task Force, said "right" is a term that society misuses. For example, people speak of the right to drive although it is only a privilege.

"If the wish to end one's life becomes a right then it cannot be restricted," Hochevar said. "What we need to be defending is the fundamental right to life of all individuals - whether they are 1 or 120."

Approval of euthanasia could lead to unnecessary deaths, Hochevar said. She said assisting patients to commit suicide paves the way for violations of a person's right to life.

Hochevar does not want it to become common for people with Alzheimers Disease to be euthanized because it will be.too easy for relatives of Alzheimers patients to ad­vocate involuntary or non-voluntary eutha­nasia.

Involuntary euthanasia occurs when people are killed when their wishes are not known. Non-voluntary euthanasia is the killing of people despite their wishes and right to live.

"What is happening in the courts right now is not that they are finding what the patients wanted but finding out what the families of the patients want and going against the wishes of the patients,'' Hochevar said.

Durable power of attorney allows a person's wishes to be carried out without needing a legal right to die, Hochevar said.

Hochevar compares the right-to-die movement with the Nazi-led holocaust. She said that in both cases a value judgment was made that suffering and certain lives are not worthwhile.

Hochevar said of Nazi Germany, "The first act didn' t lead to the last act. It was the first silence that led to the last silence.

"We can not remain silent."

Hochevar's speech was attended by 19 people, many of whom are members of "Students for Life,'' a Metropolitan State College of Denver club. 0

Publisher search

Faculty member looking for fairy-tale retirement Allen Laychak The Metropolitan

Retirement for many may mean a time to slow down after years of hard work, but for some members of Metropolitan State Col­lege of Denver's retiring faculty it means anything from ballroom dancing on a cruise ship to finding a publisher for a fairy tale book.

For the nine l 991 retirees, leaving MSCD doesn't mean working any less.

"I can't imagine what it would be like to wake up some morning and not have anything to do," said Jacqueline Funk, a professor of

Guiness Book

nursing. 'There are too many things that need doing," she said.

Funk said that, after 12 years at MSCD, she will be working more with environmen­tal groups such as the National Audubon Society and the Nature Conservancy. "One of the things that I'm trying to do is to get in a little more work with legislative issues," Funk said, "particularly the air and water and w ildemess bills and those kinds of issues that we need to do to save our outdoor environment. I'd like to do a lot more in the way of working with those groups than I have been able to do while I work. I think I'm going to have to live to l 10 to get all of

my projects done." Dawn Brett, professor of social welfare

at MSCD for 18 years, will be pursuing her interests in holistic medicine and alternative healing. Brett will be training in bio-ener­getics, a form of massage involving pressure points and the electric force field around the body, she said.

Brett will also be attempting to finish a book of case studies intended as a social work text and seeking a publisher for her book of fairy tales, she said.

Bill Vickers, director of administrative computer services, retired last December after 12 years and is seeking a job as a senior

host on a cruise ship where he can pursue his interests in ballroom dancing and travel, according to Nancy Munser of MSCD pub­lic relations.

Other MSCD 1991 retirees include: Furman Griffis, professor of leisure studies; Alyce Howe, secretary of the journalism department; David Marsh, professor of bi­ology; Porter McDonnell, professor of sur­veying; Ida Schenck, professor of music; and Oscar Schuette, professor of marketing and business education.

The retirees will be honored at a dinner May 3 at the Pinehurst Country Club in Denver. 0

Aurora YMCA hopes to make record-setting splash Todd Burgess The Metropolitan

If you have ever dreamt of being in the Guiness Book of World Records, here's your chance.

The Aurora YMCA needs a few hearty souls May 31 and June l to help set a new swimming record in a one-day swim relay.

Wait! Before you chicken out on a dream, before you say to yourself, "I can't swim for an entire day, even if it does mean being in Guiness," consider this: you only have to swim one length of the pool.

Banquet Facilities Available

Reservations Accepted from 1to100

Ask About "The Affordable Caterer"

The YMCA will be trying to break a record set at a Syracuse, New York, YMCA, where 2, 135 people, each swimming one pool length, swam for an entire 24-hour period.

Jim Kauffman, executive director of the Aurora YMCA, 445 S. Lansing St., devised a plan to surpass the existing record. He wants to have 2,400 participants -100 an hour - each swim at least one length in the 60-foot-long pool.

"If a person wants to wear a life jacket, we'll throw them a rope and pull them across," Kauffman said. "If parents want to put a life jacket on their kids and let them

doggie paddle across, they can. We'll even let them swim along side their kids."

The attempt at the Guiness record will begin at l p.m. May 31 and continue until l p.m. the next day. Kauffman is hoping that live television news broadcasts the night of the 31st will encourage others to come out and participate through the night.

Kauffman said he would like to see as many individuals as possible participate in the event, but he also wants to attract clubs, businesses and other large groups.

"If anyone is interested in organizing a group, even if it's just 25, and they don 't have a slot in mind, we'll give it to them,"

Kauffman aid. "I asked myself, 'What can we do that is

fun for all ages, that won't cost a lot and will attract some attention?"'

Kauffman thought about the Guiness Book of Records, browsed through a copy and settled on one of two records: either the record for most people standing on their beads or the record for relay swimming. Be decided the swimming record would be more fun.

A Guiness representative doesn' t need to be present for the record to be official as Jong as it is properly documented. 0

PROFILE

------- - -~- - -----~

May 3, 1991

While other students go home after school, Turi Gustafson goes to the theater. She is much more than a 20-year-oldstudent at Metropolitan State College of Denver, she is a professional singer.

"Singing is my life," she said. She certainly proves that true. Gustafson

sings with the women's vocal group "Pink Champagne" and had a role in "Up on the Roof' a musical production at Stage West in Denver.

"Pink Champagne" performs at parties and banquets all over Colorado. The group does a lot of '40s and '50s tunes and the four women trade off .solo position.

Gustafson is paid for her singing perfor­mances but she also baby-sits for extra money. She is saving her money so she can move to California this summer.

"I am moving there because it is one of the greatest cities for working in film and television," she said with a smile.

"So far, I've only accomplished theater acting, I want to try to make it in film."

Gustafson has been planning her move for months. She has an apartment in Glen­dale, California set up rent-free. She'll be house-sitting for another performer that is currently on the road with another show.

"It might seem crazy or foolish, but I want to expand my horizons as an actress."

Here is a glimpse of a young singer's life.

Turi Gustafson enjoys a brunch date with Maurice LaMee,27, an actor/singer currently performing at the Country Dinner Playhouse. "I like dating older men, they treat me the way I want to be treated - with respect and thoughtfullness."

These are her last few days on campus. Soon she will be triing to make it on her own In Hollywood. "I know there will be many ups and downs, but I look forward to the challenge."

Petty theft

Exploring a Chunk(y) of the criminal mentality

Dave Plank

Have I mentioned the time I tried to shoplift a Chunky from a tiny neighborhood candy store in Wheatridge?

The year was - oh, who remembers? Let's say 1979. I would have been 11 or 12 as I sulked into the store, accompanied by my 10-year-old cousin. I can't recall whether I was seized by impulse or had planned the heist for weeks. I do remember the numb, heavy heat of the summer day, and the dopey silence of the streets.

Once inside I bought something (sincere errand? Canny ploy? We'll never know) and as the old man behind the counter rang it up, I reached up and unobtrusively grabbed the Chunky off its display rack next to the register.

Note, at this point, the sheer incompetence and lack of criminal skill on my part. Chunkies were, and still are, wrapped in twinkling silver foil. I had decided to steal the most glaringly conspicuous candy in the place. No wonder he saw as I stuck it into the pocket of my shorts, looked over the top of his glasses through my eyes into my soul and said, wearily, "Are you going to pay for that?"

I stammered an affirmative reply, fumbled around in

EDITORIAL

my pocket for a quarter, threw it on the counter, and dragged my cousin out the door with me. A blissfully unaware accessory to the crime, she asked what was wrong, and I told her to Just Shut Up.

A tawdry, disgusting little tale, yes. But the grown up, who is already raising his eyebrows in doubt or pursing her lips in silent disapproval, is asked to hold off judgement for a second, to Just Shut Up, until the end.

I don't like to brag, but I was listening to Jorge Ben, Gilberto Gil, Gal Costa and their ilk for quite some time before David Byrne released his flawed but decent anthology of Brazilian music. I learned early that the quality of these performers' recordings can be horribly unpredictable. One never knows when a record (record: an archaic sound reproduction medium, usually of black vinyl, played on a turntable ) will feature the throbbing samba beat one craves or the empty clamor of Brazil's almost-always overproduced rock-n-pop.

Anyway, not long ago I bought Gal Costa's "Profana" tape and brought it home. I've always had the sneaking suspicion that Costa is the Brazilian equivalent of Eydie Gorme, but I still like her. I fetishized the un­wrapping and first violation of that virginal tape more than any in recent memory.

Well, it was crappy. The recording quality was awful, the beat was erratic and choppy. I knew halfway through the first song that I would never play it again,

and I began to wonder whether the store would let me exchange it for something else. Well, maybe if it was damaged.

I stuck the blade of a kitchen knife into the hole and twisted until the tap~ broke on one end, then I rushed down to the record store to complete my treachery. I gave in to the devious whisperings of the little devil on my shoulder and walked into the store.

But I couldn't do it. Petty is the word I kept hearing in my head. Was I going to give in to this awful urge over something this petty? Of course the reader will note the implication - give me something a little less petty to be sneaky and dishonest about, something a little more valuable, and eat my dust. I don't know. In any case I couldn't do it, and left the store.

"And now," the reader says, half-disgusted, "I sup­pose you're feeling very proud of yourself, aren't you?" Au contraire. I feel nothing of the sort. I feel puny for having thought of the act in the first place, and somewhat cowardly for not having the ya-yas to carry it out. What made me stop was not a high moral standard, or the harm that may have been done to someone by my act, but fear.

Because I was remembering the Chunky. So I did the right thing for the wrong reason. So sue me. Just don't tell that candy-store owner in Wheatridge, okay? He's probably still looking for me.

Have a great summer.

A whole year chock full of the good, the bad and the ugly Spring semester '91 has almost become history,

marking the close of yet another academic year. It's all flown by in something resembling a blur. Too many happenings in too short a time period.

Globally, it's been one bizarre occurrence after another. The Germanys got back together. Most of the communists all over the world are havlng second thoughts about the plausibility of Marxism. The United States won a whole war in one semester.

Campus/college events were no where near as dramatic, but we can all relax over summer vacation, secure in the knowledge that, in general, all is well.

We (almost) have a complete gymnasium -- brand spanking new in some places.

With the acquisition of the Tivoli, we have a start on "the best student union in the country" -- and probably the world. Hell, they don't even have student unions in Cameroon. Let's hope everyone feels duly apprecia­tive.

Students actually showed up and voted in the student government elections. That's something you rarely see on this campus -- student participation. Incidentally, this is one of the only elections I've ever seen in which the best man really won. Chip Wiman may be the best thing that's ever happened to student government and, from the looks of things, the student body.

The journalism department hired an amazing part­time professor for the Feature Writing for Magazines class. Bill Gallo, who currently works for "Westword," inspired the class with samples of exceptional writing from such legends as Joan Didion, George Orwell, Michael Herr, Hunter Thompson and P.J. O'Rourke. He encouraged, guided and corrected the class into (hopefully) improvement.

We have a president, Dr. Thomas B. Brewer, who genuinely cares about the welfare of this college. Yes, I disagree with his proposed fee increases. Yes, I think

the graduation fee is a tasteless way to squeeze more money out of already impoverished students. But he also promotes the school constantly. I was awakened Sunday morning by Brewer's voice blasting out of my clock radio. I couldn't tell you a word he said (it was a Sunday morning) but I know he was talking about dear old MSCD. What a guy.

He is also one of very few college administrators who actually gets to know the students. He is not the kind of administrator who locks his door to ward off the vulgar masses -- or students.

Speaking of doors, how about a big oak one with a shiny brass knob? Throughout the ages, The Metro­politan has enjoyed reminding readers that Brewer had a pricey redecorating job done on his office when he came here. Admittedly, it is a lovely office. In all sincerity, Brewer has earned the poshness that exudes from his office.

We managed to get a real, live, famous comedian on campus ... that was George Carlin, for those who· missed it. Somehow, the music department managed to get Wynton Marsalis to play at t~e Paramount in honor of MSCD's 25th anniversary. Amazing.

All ofthe 25th anniversary stuff was pretty neat. The Plain & Fancy Ball, for example, was a lavish celebration at the Colorado Convention Center. Rachel B. Noel was deservedly the Plain & Fancy Person of the Year. Harry Gianneschi showed up in violently patterned, velcro-fastened neon pants, a sight well worth the price of a ticket. The food was terrible (the chicken tasted like mutton). But the drinks were cheap, and you've got to like that.

The escapades of Student Body President Dan Holden kept everyone entertained, sometimes inter­ested, often irritated. I suspect this needs no embel­lishment.

Much to this same student body president's cha­grin, students voted to keep CoPIRG by approving

continued use of the negative check-off system. So many things at MSCD have effectively resisted

change. Members of ROTC continue to march around campus in theirfatigues. Members of Campus Advance still try to recruit people in the cafeteria, wander around campus acting joyful, and sing and clap their hands into the night. Boy, are they annoying. Members of the rugby club are still looking for dates. The search was not an exercise in good taste. They placed a sign in the window of their office in the Student Union saying "NEEDS 2 DATES." So, ladies, call 556-3329 and ask for Chris or Mike ifyou needs a date too.

, Joel Kleg proved to be much more than the minor annoyance we all thought he was. He turned out to be a felon. Not just a run-of-the-mill felon either, a felon who steals from senile old ladies. Who would have thought he was so ambitious? Auraria Public Safety called The Metropolitan on Tuesday and asked us to call them immediately if we saw Kleg. Apparently the Denver Police Department has issued a warrant for his arrest . The details are sketchy, but presumably an arrest warrant would indicate a violation of probation.

All in all, it's been a pretty interesting year. It's almost hard to believe it's over.

There is one more thing though . .. This enjoyable and reasonably productive year has

been tainted. I thought I knew the members of the MSCD Board of Publications. Now I learn that the Board is utterly spineless and concerned more with avoiding controversy than ensuring the quality of the newspaper. Nothing more needs to be said on that subject, but, boy, am I disappointed in them. Of course, if you want to know all the details, a student on the Board will tell all. Evidently, he has not learned about confidentiality yet.

KKK rally fueled by media coverage, protestors Editor,

I would like to respond to Mr. Mestnik's letter in last week's Metropolitan dealing with the skinhead rally. I agree thatthe press should have focused more attention on the positive aspects of the post-kl an gathering. I feel though that this would have simply been making the best of a bad situation. The confrontational and violent nature of the event (regardless of the media'a interpre­tation of it) was not necessary. If the protesters had

stayed away, or held their own rally at a different time and/or location, there would have been no confronta­tion. and the skinheads and KKK would not have received nearly as much free publicity. As Brian Larson's cartoon last week so succin~tly put it, "What if they held a skinhead rally and no one showed up?"

Judith Weatherbee MSCD Student

No decal requirement invites downtown parkers Editor,

Like most students (faculty, staff, administration, and visitors) of the Auraria campus, I constantly com­plain about the costs and availability of parking. Every semester I purchase my decal to assure that I will have a convenient place to park while attending classes. Now I understand that decals will no longer be required to utilize the campus parking facilities. According to the AHEC Parking Office this decision was made because students are concerned about paying $3.75 for a parking decal. However, I feel that the real issue is to assure every space is filled, thereby bringing more income into the coffers of the parking office, by who­ever AHEC can get to park on campus. While some students may complain at having to buy a parking decal, most students realize that this is a protection to assure that parking is available for all students. If parking really is concerned at charging students $3. 75 for a decal they could offer them ~to anyone with a

current student i.d .. and still assure that parking spaces are available to us.

I am concerned that when decals are no longer required downtown employees would rather pay $2 to park at Auraria than $5 to park downtown. Further, because most offices open at 8:00 a.m., close-in parking will be filled before students arrive for early morning classes. These spaces will be filled for the remainder of the day. Also, when there are large events downtown (for example the Grand Prix, a Broncos game, the Elitch's expansion, or a possible major league baseball game), there will be no way to identify students, who provide these spaces through the $22 AHEC Bond Fee.

With this new plan, parking will become a free for all, with students evicted from convenient parking.

Hoping to get a parking space,

Littering students disgrace of Auraria Campus Editor,

Like many other students at the Community College of Denver, I spend much of my time at the Auraria Campus. In between classes many of us like to read or eat lunch on the lawn. Some catch up on much­needed sleep, while others organize games of volleyball or football. But unfortunately, there are still others who are participating in another event; destruction of our campus grounds. .

I became aware of this problem one summer-like day a few weeks ago. I noticed several exciting games of volleyball underway while going to class.When I returned, all the players and equipment were gone, · that is, all but their trash! The grounds were a mess. Beverage cups, plates, and various other debris were scattered everywhere. As I proceeded towards the student union, I noticed the grass hill in front of the patio area. It too was cluttered with trash. Waste containers are plentiful, and always convenient. So my question is "Why is it, that a campus full of educated

·people, don t know what a trash can is, or how to use

one-" I am disappointed in the campus body if they have so little regard for their surroundings.

Do we still recquire parents to follow us around reminding us to pick up after ourselves? Will we not act responsibly until fees are raised to pay for additional grounds maintenance! Or must there be a "trash patrol" to impose penalties for littering those caught would pay there dues by picking up the trash of others, wearing a vest that read "LITIERBUG" across the back. Maybe it would take a little humiliation to teach such a lesson.

I do not pretend to know of a workable solution. I can only ask others to not just use your brain while an campus, but use your limbs as well . Pick up your mess, and walk a few steps out of the way to dispose of it properly. We have a lovely campus at Auraria, and must all do our part to keep it that way. Besides, your mother doesn't work here!

Pres-elect proud to work at Chicano Conference Editor,

I recently attended the National Chicano Student Conference as a volunteer. The warmth, love, and community spirit that I felt during this conference was unlike most group events that I have attended. ME Ch A has tapped into the passion and commitment that only

a well-bonded organization can achieve. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the members for their community work and dedication.

14 THEMETROFUCKINGPOLIT AN May3, 1991

LETTERS Student lambastes 'Concerned student' letter, says allegations are false

Editor,

This sincere letter is in response to the unfounded and totally off base letter in your April 26th edition. In regards to the alleged fact that Ibarra is a member of M.E.Ch.A. is totally untrue. As for him trying to work with M.E.Ch.A. it is ridiculous. I've personally tried to work with him on several occasions and from my experience I've come to the conclusion he is totally irrational and closed minded to other people's opinions. The Chicano or Hispanic issue is a complicated one and anybody who is familiar with it realizes the difficulty involved. In response to the assumption that we in M.E.Ch.A. attack other Chicano hispano students is false. It's a general concensus in M.E.Ch.A. that we respect every students ideology, and the name they wish to be identified with.

We feel that as long as you are willing to work for the advancement of our people, you are more than welcome to join M.E.Ch.A. The point about not working with

other organizations is pretty odd because we not only share our office with the Hispanic Leadership Association(HLA), we have also co-sponsored several events together. In response to the overwhelming vote for Ibarra, the annonymous author never mentioned that Ibarra was the only person on tha printed ballot. We submitted other candidates on a write in basis. I would like to wish SACAB good luck communicating with Ibarra. I know that there would have been a different outcome if the student population knew lberra's character. As for the~ sucessful National Chicano Student Conference, which over 400 students from across the country participated in. The conference dealt with important issues, effecting our campuses, communities and world concerns.

M.E.Ch.A. is extremely proud of our sucess in hosting the conference, which was dedicated to Rich Castro. As for the preposterous counterproductive argument about Chicano pride. There is absolutely nothing wrong with displaying your enthusiasm and

pride for your people, and their accomplishments which always seem to be overlooked. I was there when the hotel administration and police overreacted. Their actions were unexcusable and after the incident the hotel apologized. l:he hotel also extended their services because of their mistake. The handpicked assumption is almost as interesting as the groundless racial in­equality claims. We have over 150 members in M.E.Ch.A. We also hold annual elections which estab­lishes the next president and vice president, etc .. I'll tell you who the president is: Her name is Jeannette Martinez. Jeannette was the V.P., but due to health reasons, our original president Darlene Lopez had to step down.

I have the courage and integrity to support my facts. I'm more than willing to discuss any questions regarding M.E.Ch.A. I can be reached at 556-3321 .

Racial /ables require clarification, understanding between groups

Editor,

This [letter] is in response to the coments made by a "concerned student", about M.E.Ch.A and one of it's members, Joe Navarro. (by the way, M.E,Ch.A is spelled with a "h" not a Capitol H). M E.Ch.A is an organization helping new Chicanos on campus. In addition, M.E.Ch.A. recently hosted the 1991 NCSC

National Chicano Student Conference (not the MECHA National Conference). Who ever wrote the article is obviously not in M.E.Ch.A, has never at-

tended meetings and has only heard heresay about the group. The vary factthatthe person did not puttheir name down is evidence that they coulld not possbily support themselves in their acusations towards MEChA.

Also, concerning the acusation that MEChA is "Chicano" biased is unfounded, in fact, MEChA shares it's office with the Hispanic-Leadership Association (HLA) and has worked on projects with this group. We believe that people should be called what they want to be called. If a person is "Hispanic" then they should be

called Hispanic. But we prefer to be called CHICANOS and not Hispanics, it is in effect being responsible for nameing a group properly.

In regards to the coments made towards Joe Navarro, he is one of the most "active" people I know. Through his vast experiences, he helps to give guid­ance not only to all the people in the group, but to anyone who talks with him.

Aurelia Casillas MSCD student

Student refutes accusations of racial bias in MEChA organization Editor,

I'm writing in reference to the acusations that a so called "Concerned Student" made towards the Chicano Student group M.E.Ch.A (April 26th edition). These acusations are false and anyone who works not only in the group, but also with it, knows this. At the National Chicano Student Conference (and not " MECHA Na­tional Conference" as this so called "concerned Stu­dent" stated), Chicanos, Latinos, Hispanics, Puertoriquenos and Mexicanos all made the NCSC a sucess. The name of the conference, as it has been for

many years is the National Chicano Student Confer­ence, not National Hispanic Student conference. If someone wants to be called Hispanic or Latino or whatever else, that is their choice, however Chicanos want to be called CHICANOS, not Hispanics, but they do not put down anybody for the label they choose to put on themselves, all that matters is that we are fighting for the same battle. We even share an office with the Hispanic Leadership Association (HLA).

If we were as anti-Hispanic as the nameless per­son wrote, then we would not even share this office with HLA on some projects.

I'm an active member and know that M.E.Ch.A is a well organized, responsible, and strong group of people working to bring about needed change. Again, the soldiors in the fight; the students, the teachers, the parents, and leaders wear differnt colors, carry flags of differnt colors and speak different languages, but united we are all fighting for the same thing ... an and to the oppression of all People.

Auraria Family Night gave maximum entertainment for minimum price

~ditor,

I'd just like to thank all the people who made the Auraria Family Night, "Galaxy Circus" on April 26, such a success. This is the third year my son and I have attended the function and this may have been the best one yet. For a minimum output of cash we had a maximum amount of fun. It seems that the Family Night sponsors have proven that you can get some­thing for almost nothing. The entertainment was firsf class and the prizes my son and his cousin brought home were worth at least 1 O times the amount of money we spent that night. Now when was the last time you could say that?

My only complaint would be the lack of participation

by the students at Auraria. On Family Night, there was a great band playing in the Mission-to a crowd of three people. It seems to me that someone is always quick to complain about what students are getting for their money, often questioning where their money is going. So where are those students when these fun activities an campus take place. If they are going to complain about the events on campus, then I hope they do it quietly. I, for one, don't want my chances of enjoying top-rate entertainment hurt by their whining.

So anyway, if you haven't been to a family night bash yet, then I suggest you mark it on your calendar for next year!

I'd also like to give a special thanks to the new student body president, Chip Wiman, and his partner

Sarah Cratty. They made a special effort to insure that· all the children they met at Family Night had the time of their lives. "Blackjack Potato" Chip Wiman went beyond the call of duty to make an often forgotten section of the Auraria campus feel welcome-the families of the student body. If this is the kind of quality leadership we can expect from Chip Wiman and his staff this upcoming year, then I think that our dreams have been answered. We may have finally gotten a student senate that will focus their efforts on the things that really matter-and that is the students and their needs.

Identity is fol.Ind through poetry Kathy Hovis The Metropolitan

Until recently, women have been por­trayed as either whores or virgins, according to Ada Torres, a lecturer at "Voices from Beyond the Center-Herman as Diferentes, but the same: An Anthology of Latino Po­etry," which covered several issues includ­ing identity, language, racism and sexism.

Torres is a graduate student and the Uni­versity of Colorado pursuing a master's degree in English while teaching a writing workshop.

Chicano and Latino women poets validate the lives and experiences of Chicano and Latino women, according to the lecture held April 26 in the North Classroom Building.

WIMAN from pages

times. So basically, for giving two nights a week and all the social work that they do, we're giving them a meal."

"Students need to know that the people that are in office are working for them. They are their employees," Wiman said.

Wiman said that he is really trying to make a difference and that he is already receiving many calls from people to address various issues. He added that the "Rocky Mountain News" and the public relations department at MSCD have asked him for interviews about the "non-traditional stu­dent government" concept.

She spoke of how she did not understand poetry at first, because many poets were writing from the white male perspective.

"When I started reading Chicano poetry, I found my voice- lcould identify with it," Torres said.

She said Latino poetry helps her in her "search for identity" to know "who we are."

Although Torres describes herself as a Puerto Rican feminist, she acknowledges the personal differences among Chicano women and all feminists as well.

"I'm not a spokeswoman for all Chicanos, and as a feminist I don't speak for all femi­nists," she said.

Torres, however, is outspoken concern­ing her views.

"It is dangerous to forget where we came

"I want everybody to listen to me as much as they will because I think I have something important to say to people and to students on this campus," he said. ''They're happy to spend time with me."

Wiman, who has three children, has worked in the restaurant industry, been the general manager for Bubba's Inc. and the director of restaurants for the Denver Marriott.

He said that he attended MSCD in 1973 but quit to expand his horizons and travel. College at that time was more of a challenge and not so much horizon expanding.

He is majoring in history and minoring in reading or early childhood development, he

from. We must not melt into the pot. Latinos have refused to melt although the U.S. gov­ernment has tried to knuckle us under," she said.

Torres also examined the real contribu­tions of Chicano women.

"Chicano and Puerto Rican history is matriarchal. At one time our women were equal to men. We (Chicano and Latino women) healed people, were rulers, priest­esst(_s, and the royal line ran through the women," she said.

Torres related how a student once asked her why she always had to ask questions about racism and be so controversial.

"Anglos tell me, 'Oh, I feel so uncom­fortable.' I say, 'Imagine how we've felt during the last 500 years. '" 0

said, adding that he hopes to achieve a teaching certificate in the elementary edu­cation program.

Wiman said that he hopes to pursue a teaching position at the kindergarten level, preferably in inner-city Denver. He said that he is learning multi-cultural teaching con­cepts to teach the students early on that all people are equal.

"I'm very serious about running student government well and being open," he said. "I can accomplish goals. I set out to accom­plish things and I get them done. I don't chase my tail a lot. I mean, I've done all this work and I'm not even in office yet." 0

Dispelling the "endangered species" im­age of African-American males is the in­tended goal of an upcoming conference at Auraria.

About 600 African-American male stu­dents, in grades six through 12 from public schools throughout the state, will attend workshops conducted by African-American males from the Denver community. The adult males, who work in professions rang­ing from plumbers to lawyers, will concen-

trate the workshops on career exploration and self-esteem and self-development issues.

Percy Morehouse, director of equal op­portunity for Metropolitan State College of Denver, said the men who will be conduct­ing the workshops will act as role-models for the students.

"We want to introduce them to males who have found an alternative to drugs and gangs and who are successful in their ca­reers," Morehouse said.

There will also be workshops conducted for the parents on issues such as financial aid

for college, and parenting and child devel­opment.

The conference is a collaborative effort of the organizers and the participating public schools, who are providing transportation for the students, teachers and counselors.

Members of the Black Student Alliance and other men and women from the Denver community will act as guides and serve other duties, such as introducing speakers, throughout the day.

The conference will be held in the Auraria Student Union May 4. Q

18 THE METRO POLIT AN May 3, 1991

As final exams approach. we thought that it would be appropri­ate to have a column in Metro Connections that discusses some general guidelines for preparing for exams.

First of all. try to remain focused 'On the (hopefully) main reason that you have been taking your courses this semester: learning. Sometimes. in our haste to 'cram' for exams, this little fact gets lost amid the notecards and empty coffee cups and we find ourselves wondering why we left our nine to five job to subject ourselves to this process.

As you look ahead to your specific exams, try to find out as much as you can about the types of ques­tions that will be covered, whether it is cumulative, and whether there will be special areas of importance thatwillbeemphasized. During your review of your notes from lectures and your reading, try to keep one question on your mind: 'What question would I ask from this ma­terial. what's really important?' So often students think that they have to know absolutely everything and end up knowing very little. You have to make choices about what you learn; don't be afraid to decide that one topic is more important than another and spend more time really learning it.

While it is impossible to cover all topics relevant to preparing for exams in this space. some recom­mendations for performing at your best are: Always carefully read the directions before beginning your test - answering three out of five essay questions is a far different task than if you mistakenly believe you have to answer all five. Don't change your initial answer out of anxiety, but do change it if you are calmly concerned that you have good reason to do so. Take the time to quickly read through the exam and begin answering the easy questions first. When you run into questions that stump you, go on to another one - often our memories are jarred by associa­tions with other related material, and we can than answer the initial question. Keep careful track of the time remaining so that you have the opportunity to answer all of the items. If you have any extra time, do go back through your answers to make sure you have answered them completely.

Finally. in preparing for exams, re­memberto study when your mind is fresh and capable. exercise when you mind is tired, and sleep when both your body and mind are tired. Oh. be careful with that coffee.

Best of luck on finals. and have a great summer!

SPORTS Success engulfs MSCD athletics for 1990-91 season Dale Shrull Sports Editor

As the Metropolitan State College of Denver athletic season winds its way to a close, one word can sum up the year for most Roadrunner teams: success.

From the fall sports - men's and women's soccer, women's volleyball -to the spring sports - men's and women 's basketball , and swimming and men's base­ball - all have experienced some type of success during the 1990-91 season.

With the ongoing renovations to the Auraria Gymnasium, the men's and women's basketball teams had to practice off campus and finish their game schedules at Denver West High School.

The first day of February, Denver re­ceived the 1993 bid to host the 1995 Olym­pic Festival. The nation's greatest athletes will come to Denver and the surrounding area in July in 1995 as the final tune-up for the 1996 Summer Olympics to be held in Atlanta.

The Auraria Campus will be one of the venues for the Festival. The selection com­mittee toured the campus and Auraria Gym­nasium in September and decided that table tennis and fencing would be two possible events held there. Coaches and more coaches

A view from the press box

Dale Shrull Sports Editor

What a year, from Sept. 7 to May 3, 28 issues. Twenty eight issues as sports editor of The Metropolitan.

From men's and women's soccer cham­pionships to the women 's basketball team's record-setting year, men's basketball team's second-straight North Dakota nightmare, and the baseball team's elevator-style sea­son, the Metropolitan State College of Denver's athletic season was really some­thing to write about.

When I took the sports editor position, I had one goal in mind: to create a recogniz­able legitimate sports section.

I believe I accomplished that goal. My reign has come to an end with this

issue, I hope the next editor and chief of The Metropolitan will dedicate the same space, personnel and time to the sports section.

College newspapers, like regular news­papers, have numerous purposes. One pur­pose of the college paper is to inform the

Thanks for the memories

Teams deserve support and media attention student population of the goings-on of cam­pus related events.

Sporting events on this campus are as newsworthy as any event and deserve to be given the same coverage as other events.

Men's basketball is the most prominent and recognizable team on this campus. Under head coach Bob Hull they have been one of the better NCAA Division II teams in the nation.

One thing that still baffles me is why the very successful men's basketball team from the largest four-year undergraduate-only college in the nation is largely ignored for the most part by Denver's media.

"The Denver Post" has assigned a beat writer, Sam Adams, to cover the Colorado Athletic Conference; however, "The Post" refused to send Adams to North Dakota to cover the Division II playoffs.

The "Rocky Mountain News" still re­fuses to give the Roadrunners or the CAC

100- and 200-yard breaststroke events. His time of :57.81 in the 100-yard event was good enough for fifth place. He placed sev­enth in the 200-yard event with a time 2:06.78.

Neary' s performances were good enough for him to receive All-America honors in

consistent coverage. Through the confer­ence schedule, the "News" only gave small recaps of the MSCD games. During the CAC Tournament they finally sent a re­porter.

With the live radio coverage on 710 KNUS from last season, it gave the 'Run­ners some exposure.

With the completion of the Auraria Gymnasium, hopefully before Rocky 73 is released, the MSCD court teams will get some of the local attention they deserve.

Not only from the local media but from the student population. With a capacity of around 3,000,let'shopethemen's team will be playing in front of a packed house come next season.

With the Jack of overall coverage by the Denver media, it will be up to The Metro­politan to dedicate themselves to covering the Roadrunners.

The Metropolitan, they will make the deci­sion of what they should cover.

I hope that the goals, wins and losses of the soccer teams are covered; the sets, spikes and serves of the volleyball team; the dunks, dishes, boards, treys and steals of the basket­ball teams; and the hits, misses, catches and pitches of the baseball team are covered in the future sports section of The Metropoli­tan.

So my reign has come to an end. I hope you enjoyed it, I know I enjoyed putting it out for you.

Here's to MSCD and The Metropolitan: thanks for the memories, but most of all thanks for the experience. That's what a college education is all about.

May 3, 1991 THEMETROPOLITAN 21

Year filled with great individual, team performances SEASON from page 20

Having to practice and play off campus, the 'Runners overcame adversity to post a 15-13 mark and finished fourth in the CAC with a 6-6 record.

The 'Runners were led by 6-foot sopho­more center, Holly Roberts, who was twice named CAC Playerofthe Week this season.

Holly Roberts She set new MSCD single-game stan­

dards by scoring 33 points, 27 rebounds and seven blocked shots in a 70-56 win over Regis Feb. 23.

Roberts was also named to the first-team CAC team and her 14.2 rebounds a game average ranked her second in the nation in NCAA Division II.

. Smith has already set goals for next sea­son. "Win 20 games, the CAC title and have a heck of a lot of fun trying." Men's basketball

If there is one program that is laced with success it's the men's basketball program.

Since his arrival six years ago, head coach Bob Hull has entrenched a winning tradi-

tion. Under Hull the 'Runners have a 115-57

record and made their second consecutive trip to the NCAA Division II regional play­offs this season.

After receiving a bid to the playoffs, the 'Runners traveled to Grand Forks, N .D. March 15. For the second year in a row, the 'Runners met a similar fate: they lost.

South Dakota State University ended MSCD' s goal of a Division II championship by whipping the 'Runners 92-79 in the first round.

A third place 99-92 victory over Kearney State College offered MSCD some consola­tion.

The 'Runners finished with a 23-8 mark and the CAC regular season title before dropping the tournament championship game to the University of Southern Colo­rado, 97-88.

Senior guard Adrian Hutt, junior guard Ralph Rivers and senior center Fred Brown were named to the CA C first-team. Hutt was named CAC Player of the Year.

Emotionally, the MSCD team hit a· high point Jan. 26 when Hosea McQuilla, a 23-year-old freshman guard for the 'Runners was called to active duty in the Army.

With the Persian Gulf war just starting, the frightening thought of a teammate pos­sibly bound for Saudi Arabia made for an emotional night Jan. 26.

McQuilla added to an emotional evening by singing a tearful rendition of the National Anthem while holding the hand of team­mate and friend Florian Miller before the

game against USC. The 'Runners went on to down USC 86-

80. After dropping out of school, McQuilla

traveled to Fort Lee, Va. to check in for active duty Jan. 31. His active duty was short. Following a physical, the Army re­leased McQuilla from active duty due to a spinal problem.

He didn't return to school, but he and Hull both said he will be back for next season.

Hutt was the team's leader all season. The senior was named to the third-team Division II All-America team after the sea­son.

He now holds every MSCD record for assists and steals and his 25 assists in a Nov. 25 game is a national Division II record.

Hutt finished the season as the nation's Division II leader in assis~ with a l 0.2 assist per game average. Men's baseball

The season is continuing for the baseball team and it has been an up and down season to say the least.

Following the 7-3 loss to Regis in the fifth annual Denver Cup at Mile High Sta­dium April 28, the 'Runners dropped to 18-19 on the year.

This season has been a season of streaks for MSCD. In games before the Denver Cup, MSCD won four games in a row, then lost four straight, and won one before the foss to Regis.

Co-head coach Bill Helman eclipsed the 300-win plateau earlier in the season. In his 13th year with MSCD, Helman shared the coaching duties with Eric Larson.

Junior outfielder Brendon Peach ex­tended his school record hitting streak to 23 games with a single against Regis.

Senior Jim Cluck still has the opportu­nity to break the season home run mark of 15. He leads the team with 12 home runs and 52 RBis. Women's Walk

The 1991 MSCD Women's Walk for women's athletics was held April 20 and pledges could reach the $8,000 mark by the time all of the donations are tallied.

Pledges after the walk totalled $7 ,243 but there are still some pledges that were not identified during the walk.

All of the money raised will be used for women's athletics. 0
